Toptal’s GitHub Organization Hijacked: 10 Malicious Packages Published
Threat actors hijacked Toptal’s GitHub org, publishing npm packages with malicious payloads that steal tokens and attempt to wipe victim systems.
Standalone git command line tool powered by js-git and node.js. Created to get rid of local git dependency in npm and bower, so contains only tiny subset of git features for those tools.
NoGit is a local git replacement for npm and bower, powered by js-git and Node.js.
This git tool contains only tiny subset of git features for npm and bower, so not for ordinary use.
If NoGit should use a proxy for remote connections, use one of the next solutions:
Set 'HTTP_PROXY' and/or 'HTTPS_PROXY' environment variables to the proxy URL. For Node.js delivered via NuGet, edit "~/.bin/node.cmd" file:
SET HTTP_PROXY=http://1:1@127.0.0.1:8888
SET HTTPS_PROXY=http://1:1@127.0.0.1:8888
where "http://1:1@127.0.0.1:8888" is the proxy at "127.0.0.1:8888" with username "1" and password "1" used for authentication.
Use this solution to set single proxy settings for all environments used in your project. This is a recommended solution, it will also force bower and npm to use the proxy.
Add next lines to your local '%USERPROFILE%.gitconfig' file:
[http]
proxy = http://1:1@127.0.0.1:8888
[https]
proxy = http://1:1@127.0.0.1:8888
where "http://1:1@127.0.0.1:8888" is the proxy at "127.0.0.1:8888" with username "1" and password "1" used for authentication.
Use this solution to set proxy settings for single environment only.
If your proxy only doesn't allow 'git://' URLs, you can add next lines to your local '%USERPROFILE%.gitconfig' file:
[url "https://"]
insteadOf = git://
Then NoGit will use 'https://' URLs everywhere to work with remotes. Note, that for proxy settings in solutions 1) and 2), NoGit will also use 'https://' URLs everywhere.
